The next upstream release will target bash 4.1+ only, which means that we'll be able to take advantage of bash's new ability of loading completions on demand. There is no exact date set when this will happen, but I believe it'll be done before F-16 is out. I think this will help a lot with the initial load time, but won't alone provide the possibility to choose which completions one wishes to use. But I believe the latter is a minor concern, and will no longer be necessary for decreasing the initial load time. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
